They already took their first casualty -- the McDonalds at Bayview was tragically destroyed by Metrolinx
However, the McDUA managed to destroy Popeye's Louisiana Kitchen at Eglinton and Oakwood (forcing it to relocate along Eginton to one block west of Dufferin).
 
Interesting, the developer went and made their own development notice board. How does it have zba and opa numbers though if they have yet to submit to the city?

Edit: those numbers also do not seem to match the city of torontos format.. Personal project number for the developer maybe?

Why would a developer do that?
 
So a revised proposal has cropped up at Bathurst and Eglinton. This will encompass a "potential future entrance" to Forest Hill station. The big difference is that they acquired the corner property, and are now proposing a 16-storey piece at the corner, on top of the 11-storey main building that was originally proposed.

16 storeys. I know it's in the midst of Forest Hill and this will likely trigger some NIMBYism, this still makes me yawn. It's an underground LRT station, one stop east of an interchange with the subway. Does anyone else find the density proposals to be underwhelming?

It is, but small steps...

I do given what we see at St Claire and Bathurst with a streetcar line. Hoping this is just the start though. Hakeem Optical, the Rexhal and the parking lot across from starbucks I would think are all on some developers radars. On the other hand The Hill condo has been the slowest project in Toronto by far. Sloooooooow.
 
the developers are treading a slippery slope...if they every do sell units with the promise of a direct connection and that somehow falls through, they might be sued to hell.
Happened on one of the condos on line 1

This really isn't about having a direction connection - it's more about whether a neighhourhood about to receive for all intents and purposes "subway" service is ready to densify.

Im ready... My neighbours not so much... They voted against the LRT for this very reason. No clue why though because the retail here has always been a struggle and even worse west of Allen.
 
It's seriously endless nail and hair salons, payday loan places and bargain stores.
well you do have to consider the demographics of the west end. it seems like its mostly lower income and old residential compared to yonge and east where new development is booming.
